I bought one a year ago and two days after the warranty expired the cd stop playing. Seems that the motor mechanism was weak and it would cost as much as a new one, so i bought a new one instead from J& R thru Amazon and right out the box, it would play a cd and upon starting the second cd it would stop playing the cd at 1 second or 2 second and i would hear a clicking sound in the player. I can't belief that a cd player from such a reputable company as SONY can give somuch trouble. I try and see if i can' t get back my money from J&R and go for a diferent brand.
Using this one, plugged into the old one. Had an old CD player that had both things. No one seems to know what amplifier I need. I didn't know that the CD player did not have it's own built in amplifier. It also needs seperate speakers, not mentioned either. My old speakers work with it. No mention of this fact in the description. Just a little ticked off.Info on an amplifier would be appreciated.
Since we're not "IPod people", this is a perfect solution for us. We never listened to our CD's - it was always too much trouble to look through them, etc. We are loving the CD storage/changer. Now, they are all neatly stored and just a click away from enjoying them.
Stay away from this one. The unit regularly cannot read the first several tracks of a disc. This CD player has never worked well. The laser unit malfunctions all of the time. Look for other options.
After much frustration, and MANY conversions with the store managers, we were given a new machine.same model. After waiting that amount of time, we found it had been sent to another repair facility where Sony had more "parts". It "ate" one of our favorite CD's. We have had it for 4 months now, and have it sitting on a extended piece of glass as to keep it as level as possible (being that it will not fit on standard shelving because of it's depth). All in all, it took almost 30 days to have it returned.
MUCH to our surprise, it wasn't ours, but a reconditioned machine. We brought it in for repair, they said it would take about 7 days. We purchased this player (with extended warranty) from a large box retailer and enjoyed it for 5 months before disaster struck. On the 7th day, they stated it had been sent to a Sony repair location, and would probably be there for 2 to 3 days. We choose not use random play at all and as far as programing it.we have decided that we will just let it play it's heart out one disc at a time, until it dies.
We did manage to get it out, but then it skipped repeatedly, and like the other reviews have stated, it played the first few seconds over and over again on the first track of each CD. We will not buy another Sony CD player again.even with extended warranty.
